If you visit Val d'Aran during the ski season, don't forget to book your table in advance at our Restaurant-Cocktail Bar. A perfect place for après ski, where you can meet friends, go with your partner or family, and enjoy a select cocktail menu by the fireplace after a long day in the snow. But don't hesitate to visit us in the summer, when you can cool off in the swimming pool and relax in the garden loungers, all the while contemplating the Pyrenees mountains. Furthermore, one of the jewels of the Parador is the spa pool, with an indoor and outdoor part, and which is heated in the winter months.
Val d'Aran was one of the first Catalan regions to receive the official seal of a Sports Tourism Destination, and in addition to the sports that you can practise thanks to the snow, there are spectacular hiking routes through the Pyrenees. The beautiful town centre of Artíes is as attractive as the distant views it provides. It has all the charm of a mountain village, with houses topped with peaked roofs, and narrow cobbled streets that lead to atmospheric bars and restaurants.
